Al Sharpton isnt one to keep quiet when under attack, and tonight he responded in kind to the near-universal conservative guffaw his resist we much teleprompter gaffe received last night. Specifically, he responded to Rush Limbaugh, who suggested jokingly that the teleprompter was racist. Taking full responsibility for garbling the words, he thanked Limbaugh for bringing him viewers, telling him, I want to preach to your choir!
Sharpton seemed in good spirits about the gaffe, clarifying that, unlike Limbaughs conspiracies, theres no racist teleprompter and theres no black journalist trying to sabotage me I messed up a line! He took so much responsibility, noting that it happens to anyone who has ever hosted a show, including you, that he even gave away another gaffe he made tonight. There is no Environmental Projection Agency, he noted, requesting Limbaugh play that mistake, too. Play that tomorrow, because I want all of your listeners to start watching me, he argued. I dont want to preach to the choir I want to preach to your choir, Rush! He also addressed the conspiracies surrounding his hire: I dont deal with them because they make people watch.

Oh Al, I have been waiting all day to watch you. Lol.
Rush had me laughing today over this........can’t wait for the parody.
MSNBC deserves to have that RACIST Al Sharpton.....plus he’s as dumb and cagey as the ghetto provides.
Al, we need to clue you in... when Conservatives while watching you, we`re laughing AT you, not WITH you.
Al honestly thinks Rush’s audience is going to hurry over to watch his show? Really?
LOL, what a character. This guy passed buffoon status decades ago.
I don’t think I could sit and watch more than two minutes of his show. It tells you something about folks who can.
when Conservatives while watching you = when Conservatives watch you
Isn’t it amazing how far MSNBC will go over the line toward mental illness, pseudo treason, rather than provide a level headed news service to gain more market share.
And these folks think McCarthy had it all wrong.
Marxists are nowhere to be found in our MSM.
Well, I guess ripping the nation apart is worth it if you can get a 0.1% bump in market share. Look how it has paid off.
Would that be..."race bait"?
He is a Buffoon Emeritus.
Ah, the good ole days... ;^)
Uh, yeah, Al. That was “bait.”
I listened at work and laughed and laughed.
Hmmm, Al Gore, Al Franken, and Al Sharpton.
Note to expectant parents....
“Rev” Al...talk or read must?
Love my new tag line.....Thanks Al...
Well, good, then! Because every so often, Rush will play that "Baraq the Magic..." song with the Sharpton bullhorn. Got you choir right here...
Rearend Albert Sharpton, the only reason anyone of intelligence would watch you would either be to see an example of the depths to which the media has fallen or, as in this case, the sheer comedy value.
Actually, Rush predicted today that ole Al would contact him, thanking him for sending him some viewers.......LOL!
Ahhh... how sweet... Al finally got his 15 minutes of fame.
I'd rather hear soundbites of your stupidity on Rush.... then waste(however long)listening to you polluting the already repugnant airwaves emanating from BSNBC.
